I still drink ice tea with caffeine. I tried drinking coffee and had such reflux it wasn't even worth it. But it was cafeteria coffee, which kinda sucks. Gonna try coffee again at some point.

I'm nearly 2 months out and thinking of sushi for lunch tomorrow. I've had rice no problem. And I don't have issues with taking big bites, either.

One of the girls I work with "accidentally" got pregnant at I believe 6 months out and is having a perfectly healthy pregnancy so far.

Cottage cheese and fruit. I like ricotta with a little cocoa powder and splenda, but I know some people aren't fond of the texture.

Yeah, gotta watch out for the carb Nazis.

Did you triple check the tag? So crazy! Someone told me I'm losing my boobs today. I wanna stay a D!!

I can eat pretty much everything I want. Some really bready things sit heavy in my sleeve. Otherwise the only thing that seems to make me sick is premade SlimFast shakes.

Today someone at work told me I'm losing my boobs. Wtf! Yeah, cuz my daughter is nearly 1 now and they're no longer filled with milk!! Ugh!!

I was sleeved 1/16 and I'm down 31lbs! Feeling pretty good about that! On regular foods and allowed to swallow pills again.

Mine is shrinking but the skin isn't. It's all stretchy and loose like a scrotum.

I'd rather just wear a girdle. I started at 365, there's no wrap in existance that's gonna tuck that skin in.

I pulled some of my scar tissue about 2 weeks out and was in nasty pain when I turned certain ways. Thankfully, it only lasted for a few days. I made sure to call my doc right away, though, just to make sure it was just a pull.

Well the video never needed to be seen. Everything went fine! And if you're in a good hospital, there's nothing that can go wrong that they won't be able to handle. Have faith. You'll be at home eating yummy yummy chicken broth in no time.

I made a video for my baby girl and saved it on my computer desktop before I went for my surgery. Couldn't get through it without bawling.

My first week after surgery I was ready to choke someone for a mozzarella stick from Arby's. Don't worry -- the craving passes after a little while.

My husband camps outside the bedroom door to listen for vibrator noises after I go to bed. Can't get any damn peace...

I had mine 5 days before my 30th birthday. All my friends wanted to go out and party, but I stayed in bed all day and had soup instead. There'll be other birthdays.

Preop when people would ask for the "secret", I told them I track everything I eat and they'd look at me in disgust and say that was way too much work. Were they honestly expecting me to tell them to eat bee pollen or something?

People at work keep commenting on how "skinny" I am now and I'm just like.... seriously? Yeah, a size 24 is reaaal skinny. @_@

Yeah I just got an arm slimmer (girdle for your upper arm) on Amazon because my arms have always been huge and flabby. I'm kinda hoping maybe it'll help retract the skin, too. I know people say compression garments don't work, but I had a baby last year and my abdominal skin was loose and jiggling like crazy. I immediately started wearing girdles, and even now at 77lbs down there's no loose skin. Not to say there won't be in another 100lbs, but so far so good!

Have you tried a powdered fiber supplement?

I like the Centrum Flavor Burst chewable multis, but they're expensive so I only get them if I have a good coupon.

If you ever enter the Marvel universe, Magneto will easily be able to kill you by pulling the staples from your stomach.

Depends on the specifics of your diet, because the Special K shakes are high in sugar.

I use Philosophy emulsion lotion. So far so good, but I'm only down 75 with 120 to go.
